Innocent Oils Bag design??????????


Tonight I have been working on a design for a bag, to use at Festival coming up.

I am at the point where I really dont know if it looks any good or not, as Ive been working on it for far too long tonight. :(

So here goes, What do YOU THINK???

Is it a Thumbs UP or Thumbs DOWN for this design?

Anything I should change before it goes to print?



Many thanks for your assitance in advance. :D

August Hemp SOAP Break


I have been making lovely little Cold process Hemp Soaps again, with just the right yummy blend of wonderful organic oils and raw cocoa butter.

These babies are looking like once cured they are going to be my fave so far. These have just been un-moulded after 24hrs, so it will be several weeks before I get to see how they end up.
So far the texture is even and good. The colour of the bars is a little more green than shown in the pic and there is no sign of uneven gelling, the darker areas are just shadow from the bar in front.

Hopes for this batch:

* Creamy bubbles.
* Conditioning feel.
* Not drying on the skin but not too slimy either.
* Firm bar.
* Stores a long time and matures well with age.
* NO DOS shocks, euck.

Mother Nature please smile on these little hemp soaps.

I ll keep you posted,
Namaste x

Dry Brushing - Boost your energy levels and more...


Dry brushing is a great way to improve circulation, enhance the immune system, and revitalize the nervous system. It’s a great treatment for cellulite and fluid-retention, lagging energy levels, and sore muscles.

It will get rid of dead skin cells and allow your skin to breathe more efficiently, helping your body function more efficiently.

Start your dry body brush with our soft, natural and unbleached Innocent Hemp Mit.
Our Innocent Hemp Wash Mit is a fantsastic multi purpose product. Use it dry to brush your skin and improve circulation and boost your energy levels as below.

Start at the bottom (the soles of your feet) and work upwards with a gentle, circular massage always in the direction of the heart. Be sure to pay close attention to the rougher parts – the elbows and knees and feet – and always work towards the center of your body. Finish off with a shower or bath and enjoy the multitude of benefits your body will receive from incorporating this small self-care act into your daily routine.

After you have dry brushed your body, take a bath or shower and use your mit again. This time as an exfoliating Hemp Wash Mit. This will gently remove any left over dry patches with our Hemp Terry/Hemp Muslin double sided design.

Alternatively, quickly and easily convert your mit into a Hemp Bath Bag with the handy hemp string attached. Simply fill the Hemp Bag with salts, oats and/or herbs. Then enjoy a long relaxing soak after that energy lifting dry brushing.

Innocent Hemp Mitt £4.99 available at InnocentOils.com

Content: 55% Hemp / 45% Organic
Cotton. Wash at 40 degrees C.
Size W 11cm x L 20cm
Hemp is a wonderful fabric to work with, and by using it you are helping to regenerate a valuable yet recently almost lost resourse.
